Azure skies, Mediterranean architecture, pastel tones… The photographs of Eliya – an artist from Spain – transport us to a peaceful and summery place. Minimalist, her images are reminiscent of Wes Anderson’s productions and invite us to a change of scenery.

The Norwegian artist Ida Chloë Lou Olsen uses her digital gallery as an “earth journal on film”. Minimalist and elegant, her compositions illustrate the overlapping of beings and things – in the vast universe that hosts them.

We don’t know much about the Instagrammer Shaoqi Hu, so we just let ourselves dive into her world. An intimate universe, where reflections, blur and luminous neon lights transform bodies into works of art. A collection of silhouettes as poetic as they are sensual.

It is abstraction – simple and random – that the photographer Paul Freeth focuses on. Without needing any human presence, the photographer observes the arrangement of things that populate this world, and delivers on his Instagram account raw but harmonious compositions.
